My grandmother programmed with punch cards, have no idea on what hardware and it's too late to ask. My father did a bunch of fortran and Cobol on USSR mainframes and then did a bunch of y2k here in USA. One of the neatest things I have from this is a printout from one of his fortran programs from I think Minsk-32 mainframe which he ripped into 3 pieces to wrap a developed large format 64mm film of some mountains that he shot a long time ago. The program seems to be called MATR1 and is doing matrix manipulations and referring to topography of the land in comments. I have it framed on my wall near my workstation. I coded in variety of languages most of my life And now my teenager looks to be interested in coding and is doing Java and Python in high school. Here is to 4th generation programmer!
